Steel is the world’s most recycled packaging material
Steel protects and preserves its contents and helps to reduce waste by offering a long shelf life. Steel packaging is easy to recover from mixed waste streams and can be recycled over and over again with no loss of quality. At Tata Steel Nederland, we are committed to playing our part in moving towards a sustainable global society. As a major producer of steel for packaging, we invest time, expertise and money in operations and initiatives that both promote and deliver sustainability in packaging.
We take action to:
- recycle steel packaging on a huge scale
- demonstrate our full commitment to the circular economy
- play our part in ensuring an effective regulatory environment for steel packaging by supporting the action required to achieve recycling targets
- ensure our packaging complies with REACH regulations – as in our work on REACH and chromium-free passivation
- deliver benefits from steel recycling by working in partnership with others
Our technical approach optimises production processes, reduces costs and focuses on continuously improving the performance of packaging steel. We draw on our knowledge and experience to develop new grades for the future.
Tata Steel is committed to the future of packaging steel and it shows in our innovative approach to steelmaking and tinplate production. We translate technical production and market knowledge into effective development programmes. By entering into initiatives across the supply chain, we ensure more effective delivery.
Whether it's lighter, more sustainable steel, the latest process engineering development, or the newest food safety legislation, we have both the strong supply chain involvement and the market-aware technology to deliver tomorrow's steel packaging.
